Parking is easy and soemthing like 30 feet away from the meadow, there are big trees to give you shade in the heat where the plays are held, so you have no excuses.

It's very well kept and still looks brand new even though it's been around since 2004 I believe. Check this place out before summer is over.

This was an interesting stop for me because I wasn't exactly sure what this place was. Turns out it…read moreis a giant nature park along the river, but it's privately owned/managed, which I have never really experienced with a park before. The owners basically donated this area to the public to use. It's actually really cool. There are a bunch of waterfalls here which were the most enjoyable part for me personally. I sat for a while on a hilly slope in the shade and just enjoyed the sound of the water. There's also a walking trail that is not too long and definitely doable that has some bridges and nice spots where you can see and hear the water. They had ample clean restrooms and a lot of information about the area posted on boards that you could read. As I was headed to the bathroom I saw a woman picking something and eating it. That was another thing that was a new experience for me. After I used the restroom I walked over to where she was and I saw that there were wild strawberries growing. It felt strange, but I decided to pick one myself and eat it. When in Rome right? It actually wasn't ready yet and it was a bit sour but it was a new experience for me to forage on public use land. They also had a place for viewing salmon and I was excited for that because I love to go to my local fish hatchery but unfortunately we came in the wrong season and everything was dried up and empty. I definitely would have enjoyed that section of the park if it had been the right time of year and I think it's a cool experience that everyone should have. Overall this is a very good road trip stop or place to check out if you're in the area. I definitely learned a lot and I was able to just relax and appreciate the beauty of nature for a while.

So after my first review, Fengie O. came to the rescue regarding the disappointment I originally…read morefelt about Bigelow Park. Thanks to her kind instructions, I found that I had gone to the wrong park. I actually visited a small patch of land next to someone's house and thought that was the park. I was obviously off my meds that day. Anyway, this park is major cute and nice for the kids or if you wanted to grill out. The amount of space between the grill stations is sufficient enough to not make you feel like you're encroaching on someone else's territory. There is also a decent amount of kids equipment. It all looks pretty safe and there is even a single basketball net on the half court. The park is surrounded by huge trees that in a way hide the grounds and provide ample shade. There are also unisex restrooms on site and doogy doo bags for life's little messes. It's definitely a nice park now that I actually went to the right one. Thanks Fengie.

Guess who finally moved near Bigelow Park? That's right--I did! I can walk to the park from my…read morehouse. It's a decent sized park. The equipment is appropriate for children 12 months old to 11 years old. Some children who have limited mobility can enjoy the play structures. The wide stairs are set near the ground so children can transfer out of wheelchairs and climb into parts of each structure. My oldest kid will play football with her friends, but my 2 year old likes to hide in the tube connected to the small play structure and scream! In addition to the 2 play structures, there are also two spinning toys. One is shaped like a cup. Kids sit in it and spin around. The other is a pole with a platform. 2 children get on the platform and spin each other. There are swings for babies and for older children. The swings for the older children are set near the basketball court. The swings for the younger children are closer to the main play area. A tire swing is attached to the large play structure. The park is surrounded by a grassy area. It's fun to play soccer or football. Keep in mind the area is not fenced. One of the grassy sides of the park is right next to a moderately busy road. It's good to keep an eye on younger children. The parking area is a decent size. I've seen 6 minivans parked with room to spare. There are also at least 2 large handicap parking spaces. The bathrooms are a decent size. There is a drinking fountain, a covered area for picnicking and a few picnic tables. If all the picnic tables are taken, it's a lovely place to lay a blanket down and have a sit down picnic.
